Has anyone have any issues with ranking today? I finally achieved rank 43 on a legitimate server only to see it reset back to 42 today. What gives? Did they add another patch to remove xp from private servers again?

The beauty of the weapon is in the eye of the beholder. I’m a rank 40 Bardiche Vanguard, and I can testify that any polearm in the hands of a skilled user can outmatch some of the “god tier” weapons of the game. It really depends how you play and what your personal preferences are.

While I do agree that polearms are more effective in the support role, they can actually perform surprising well during 1v1 matches against good players. Just study your opponents, read feints carefully, trick your opponent into blocking (by not feinting), learn how to time your blocks, and place your strikes carefully. Also, don’t fall for that “Run away and swing behind you” BS tactic that most high ranks pull. You have the reach advantage of the polearm, so use it wisely!

When I go toe to toe with halberd users, I personally get mixed reactions. Some high ranking players are absolutely horrible with the halberd, while I had my ass handed down to only a handful of really good players with it. I am not putting down the weapon by any means, (like I said earlier, the player behind the weapon determines how well/how poor it performs) but I’ll be completely honest by saying that it is easy for me to counter halberd players. Skilled billhooks and pole hammer players on the other hand….

HALP! So, I was forced to do a hard reset on my router, and now my server isn’t showing up anymore. I have port forwarded all of the right ports (UDP 27015, 7777, 7778), double checked the PCServer-UDKGame.ini settings (every is the same as I had my server up from before), made sure that there were no Firewall interferences (However, I did just install Comodo Firewall. Is that the issue here?), and verified the integrity of Chiv’s game cache/dedicated server.

While I was looking inside the engine, I did spot the line “invalid multihome address ip internal”, but I am not sure if I had that error before I did the reset. I no longer see my server when I refresh the serverlist. Did Chiv change anything from the last time I’ve checked? Are there any custom settings I have to adjust in Comodo Firewall in order to see my server on my master list? Plz help.
